Hello all,

    Can someone tell me why a OS/2 command window has to use fonts
from the display.dll? Why isn't it possible to have a command interpreter
that is a normal PM window where I can set scroll bars, 'infinite' buffer
length, CTRL-INSERT SHFT_INSERT for cut paste etc etc etc. Is it something
to do with how OS/2 commands are implemented.

    The reason for the question, coming from the UNIX, X-Windows world, I
would like a decent command shell for compiling etc. It should be possible
to use printf to write a trace to this shell while a PM application is 
running. Currently, the OS/2 window dissapears when you start a PM
application from a command prompt, and no output to stdio is recognised.

Thanks in advance.
